Sure. Still, those are pretty self-serving examples. But what you're talking about is a larger problem in boxing: ridiculous outcomes.
Yeah, I spent some time in London and saw a bunch of them passed out outside of the pubs. Just give them some gloves and some bus money.
I never would have compared the two. Shavers had more than 80 pro fights, cooney I think around 30. Shavers should have punched a hole in his...
I don't know. Where are some of those lists? I would say that it's pretty popular to find fault with the legitimacy of various athletes when the...

Here's an interesting sideways question: Do you think Earnie Shavers could beat Lewis one time out of 10?
More than any other type of sportsfan, most boxing folk are at once torn between their inability to imagine the true reality of the past and the...
